Hi,

in the audit trail Jon argued that we should have code specifically checking for references initialized with themselves (because one can't rebind references). I added to his draft a STRIP_NOPS, which manages to get back to the decl on the right hand side which we are looking for + minor tweaks. To make sure that the patch is safe from the false positives point of view, I also ran the testsuite with -Winit-self enabled by default and only g++.dg/init/ref6.C, correctly, showed up. Tested x86_64-linux.

Thanks,
Paolo.
